Default Is this group dead or is the other one ?

This old News Group was once big and strong, then the flame wars came
and burned it out. Unmoderated groups have a hard time that way. Good
folk still drop by occasionally.

Hey Gail, this has been a tough summer for my roses. Just a dozen and
all in pots as I am moving around. Didn't have a clue how to handle
potted roses. The poor things have tried every way to die. With Bayer
Systemic and cool weather setting in they are all looking better. My
cemetary roses, three of them, are doing great. The Cecil Brunner is
blooming like mad, the other NOIDs are growing just fine, hope they are
not from the same bush.

Howdy all -

And thank you for the welcome.

I mentioned that one rose was Mr. Lincoln - but that one is growing - the
one that is blooming is "Don Juan" a nice deep red.

I'm so busy cutting out things at the minute we don't have time to research!
I'm doing fence inserts for a Master Gardener friend of ours.

Take care - here comes the cold front!

This is the one with. No traffic - my ISP has been not pulling from
their East nor West
storage sites. They might not have this one re-newed yet.

It has been days for all of the groups... Such is life in times of
Blogs and instant messages.
news groups are endangered I fear.
